- I would like to print documents in MSWorks 3.0 to a postscript file.
- The Laserwriter printer driver allows you to do this with an option
- at print-time, but the file for a 1 page document is in excess of
- 700K. Since this document was entirely text, I assume that it is
- creating bitmaps of the font (Times) and saving the bitmap rather
- that the straight text with formatting/font commands.
-
- My question is this: How can I create a postscript file that uses
- text/font/formatting information rather than bitmaps? (The system
- is a Mac LCII running 7.0.1, and there is no printer attached.)
- Thanks in advance.
